I invite you to participate in the study entitled Use of debriefing as a training tool in simulation, of which Montserrat Faro-Basco is not the main researcher. The study is linked to the doctoral thesis Debriefing in clinical simulation, essential for the development of reflective professionals, which the same researcher is carrying out as part of the UVic-UCC Doctoral Program in Educational Innovation and Intervention. The aim of this study is: - Analysis of the effectiveness of the structured debriefing session with the TeamGAINS tool The procedure to follow will consist of the recording of the debriefing for the subsequent analysis of the behaviors and attitudes of the participants in the session (teacher and students), through its viewing. Participation in this activity is voluntary and does not involve any harm or danger to your physical or mental health. You can refuse to participate at any time in the study without having to give reasons for this, or receiving any type of penalty. The data obtained will be confidential, anonymity will be kept, these data will be organized with a number assigned to each participant, there will be no record of the identity of the participants. The data will be in charge of the research team of this study for the subsequent development of reports and publications of the study results in scientific journals. The collected information will not be used for any purpose other than those indicated.
Crossover Randomized Control trial, in which subjects are randomly assigned to one of two groups: one (ChatGPT) receiving the intervention that is being tested, and the control group receiving usual online resources.
In collaboration with Korean Schools of Northern California, the investigators will test if a community-based intervention delivered by lay health educators (LHEs) increases testing uptake among Korean Americans. A pilot cluster randomized controlled trial (RCT) with 300 participants from about 12 Korean Schools will be conducted to evaluate the efficacy of the LHE-led intervention in promoting COVID-19 testing. Participating schools will recruit Korean Schoolteachers as LHEs. According to the group assignment of schools where participants are recruited, the LHE group participants will receive 1) LHE outreach/support, 2) COVID-19 at-home antigen test kits, and 3) the instruction to use the kit while the control group participants will receive test kits and the instruction. Participants will complete an online survey at baseline, weeks 4, and 8. The primary outcome is the COVID-19 testing receipt. The secondary outcomes are intention to get tested, perceived accuracy, benefits and risks of testing, perceived barriers to testing, understanding of negative or positive results, and family members' testing receipt.
Audiovisual teaching aids can play a significant role for the retention of new material and help overcome barriers such as the physical presence or time restrictions of an instructor. In a clinical setting, multimedia health education can offer an advantage over traditional didactic teaching by engaging patients through visual content and unlimited accessibility. A critical factor to long-term survival of solid organ transplant recipients is compliance to post-transplantation medication and follow-up patient care. Transplant pharmacists serve on multidisciplinary care teams as the medication experts that provide discharge education to recipients and caregivers often at the bedside. The adoption of digital multimedia content for patient education can increase engagement of diverse learning styles while simultaneously reducing potential time conflicts in hospital practice. This study contributes to the literature by assessing the effectiveness of discharge education video(s) on patient satisfaction and knowledge levels which are currently limited.
After the initial hospitalization, parents of children newly diagnosed with cancer assume responsibility for assessing and managing their care; however, parents are often overwhelmed with information received throughout the hospitalization and are apprehensive about caring for their child at home. Parents want concise, focused information on how to care for their child after the hospital discharge. Two parent education discharge support strategies (PEDSS) were created to use at hospital discharge. PEDSS consists of a symptom management intervention and a support for the caregiver intervention. A cluster randomized control trial will assess the effectiveness and feasibility of the two different interventions.
Multiple studies have shown clinical simulation benefits over classical learning method. Research on simulation of airway management has focused on endotracheal intubation training, while research on ventilation via facemask is scant. The investigators compared both learning methods regarding the acquirement of basic skills for airway management by medical students. Students in the clinical simulation group received a 3-hour training on airway management on the first day of their 28-day anesthesia rotation, while classical learning did not. On the last day of rotation, participants were evaluated based on a validated instrument of scores. Primary outcome was airway management scores. Secondary outcomes were rate of success of intubation and incidence of complications.
Procedures: The study will be conducted in two phases: Phase 1 - Perception and Satisfaction questionnaire will be developed - A validation test will be conducted on the Perception and Satisfaction questionnaire (face, content and construct) before conducting the study. The validation process will involve the participation of lecturers, professors and students by convenience sampling. Phase 2 - To prevent bias from the researchers, each participant will be given their code as their identification number. Then the participants will be randomly divided into two groups. They will be briefed on the purpose of study (stating that, the investigators would like to see the efficacy of various teaching methods on students' knowledge gain) and procedure of the study (examinations will be conducted, surveys at the end of each class session and at the end of the study). They are requested to fill up basic demographic data, consent form and ILS questionnaire(measuring the learning style of student) before beginning the study. - In this study, the lecture will be given by the 'Researcher 1' to standardize the input to the participants of the two groups. This will produce a standardized input to the students of the two groups of teaching method. - For the FC (flipped classroom) group, the length of the pre-recorded lecture videos will be the same which the participants can view it unlimitedly. An assignment will be given for FC group that will be attempted during the discussion class(2 hours) a week after with the lecturer. No grades will be given for the assignment. - Meanwhile for the TC(traditional classroom) group, a standard lecture class of 1 hour and 1 hour of tutorial class will be conducted on the same topic. The same ungraded assignment will also be given to this group a week after the lecture class to be attempted in the tutorial class - One day gap will be given following the discussion and tutorial class for FC and TC groups respectively following which an examination of 1 hour duration will be conducted to test on their level of knowledge (assessed by exam score) on the topic being taught for both the groups using the same set of questions. - At the end of the study, each participant will be given a feedback questionnaire to evaluate their perception and satisfaction on the teaching method applied on them using the 'Perception and Satisfaction Questionnaire'.
